This cross-sectional and correlational research analyzes the relationship between psychological well-being and academic self-efficacy in students over eighteen from a pre-university center in Lima. The 200 participants were selected by non-probabilistic sampling. The evaluation instruments have been the Psychological Well-Being Scale (BIEPS-A) and the Perceived Self-efficacy Scale in Academic Situations (EAPESA), whose reliability/accuracy and validation evidence based on the internal structure present adequate values. The results indicated that the correlation between psychological well-being and academic self-efficacy is positive (r = .59) and between the dimensions of the first variable and the second. In addition, analysis reveals a significant difference (p < .05) in psychological well-being, its acceptance[1]control and autonomy dimensions, and academic self-efficacy according t...

It is analized the relationship between need for cognition and Kolb's learning styles theory, considering Freshmen students at a public university (Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, UNMSM). Participants were 489 students, chosen randomly from 19 Academic Schools or "Facultades". The results showed that students have high levels of need for cognition and that male students have the highest score. It was found that the learning style Divergent is the most frequent, while the style assimilator was the least frequent. The styles Convergent and Divergent are the most common among male and female students, respectively. Also, it was found that the measures of learning styles and need for cognition showed significative relationship. Active experimentation showed no signification relationship with need for cognition.

The domestic violence is a very big social problem, because of its high frequency and seriousness of the facts, and also its negative effects against the real victims and the close friends and relatives. In the study, the variables of post-traumatic stress disorder and inadaptation were analyzed according to age in a sample of 256 female victims of domestic violence in the marital relationship, who were administered a sociodemographic data file, severity scale of posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms, the inadaptation scale and a scale of somatic symptoms of anxiety. It was found a relevant correlation between the PTSD and inadaptation according to the age in the different age groups. In the same way, a very important correlation among each one of post-traumatic stress disorder components: reexperimentation, avoiding, and activation with the inadaptation in all kinds of age groups. It i...

La violencia doméstica es un grave problema social, por su alta frecuencia por la gravedad de los hechos y sus consecuencias negativas para las víctimas directas y personas cercanas.

Psychrometrical properties were evaluated of combining formal operations of Longeot (T.O.F.C.), according to Guttman and Moken model between 260 students of psycholoy faculty of the UNMSM. The result of Guttman’s analysis indicates that an index of reproductiveness is obtained of 0,53. The analysis of items according to Mokken´s model alows to notice that the H(i,j)Loevinger and Delta Star(i,j) coefficients correspond to studied model. The Loevinger’s H coefficientes rises to 0,81, wich one corroborates Longeot’s adjust ment of T.O.F.E. to Mokken’s model the valuation of rho reliability is 0,82. The graphic analysis of curves of items allows to notice that curves are parallel and they don't intersect, verifing the doble monotony that exist between items of T.O.F.C. The instrument smowed having a validity of construction, factorial explorative analysis on the basis of procedure o...

Se evaluaron las características psicométricas del test de operaciones formales combinatorias de Longeot (T.O.F.C.), según el modelo de Guttman y el modelo de Mokken en una muestra de 260 estudiantes de la facultad de Psicología de la UNMSM. El resultado del análisis del escalograma de Guttman indica que se obtiene un índice de reproductibilidad de 0.53. En tanto que el análisis de ítems en base al modelo de Mokken, permite observar que los coeficientes H(i,j) de Loevinger y los coeficientes Delta Star (i,j) corresponden al modelo estudiado. El coeficiente H de Loevinger de la escala total asciende a 0.81, lo cual corrobora la adecuación del T.O.F.C. de Longeot al Modelo de Mokken. Adicionalmente se observa que la estimación de la confiabilidad rho es de 0.82. El análisis gráfico de las curvas características de los Ítems permite observar que las curvas son paralelas y no s...

DOI: 10.26439/persona2020.n023(1).4831 This research studies the interaction between social habilities and activity on internet social networks in fifth grade high school students of the town of Lima.
